Scam Like many of the other companies here, we set up our account with Leaders and very first transaction, the money was put on hold. They did not provide any notification and all following transactions were put on. Swipe simple showed they were authorized. Finally got in touch with someone and they stated they wanted to do a risk review. Over a month later after not answering emails they decided they would hold the money for 180 days. I closed the account that day, now I'm just waiting for over $10,000 in revenue my company earned

The most pathetic company.They will… The most pathetic company.They will take all your personal details,sign you up for the account,will pull the credit,and without any reason will close the account.And moreover this company is connected with the biggest fraud company that is Paysafe.Whatever positive feedback you can see that has been posted by the company's own people.Big fraud company.

Stay away from these scammers Stay away. I will give zero stars if I can. I have had terrible experience with this company. There are always countless hidden fees that no one can explain. As a business owner, I have no time to argue with them every time; I think that's how they stay in business. They told me they won't charge rental for their card processing equipment after I pay for it. I paid and emailed them four times to confirm I won't be charged rental again. They did not reply. And of course I got charged again. I contacted them to request a refund. I will also raise a claim with my bank if they refuse it. I am already looking for another credit card processing company. They are horrible and make running a business even more stressful and time consuming than it needs to be. Stay away. Update: I closed my account. I had to pay my bank $30 just to stop them from continuing to take money from my account after I close my account (they are notorious for continuing to steal money after account closure; please read other online reviews). But it's $30 well spent because at least it gives me peace of mind. That's the amount of stress you will get if you do business with them. Please spare yourself from this nightmare. Update: they suddenly started charging $19.95/month as a "Fraud Management Fee" and an additional gateway fee of $5 per month for "Backup Virtual Terminal program" (they claimed that backup virtual terminal is for you to use in case your real card reader is not available; but actually, a virtual terminal has always been available as a service before). They sent out an email notifying merchants that they will be enrolled in a "program" which allows them to "submit claims to Encytro to receive reimbursement for covered chargebacks and costs" ( $19.95/month as a "Fraud Management Fee") and the "Backup Virtual Terminal program" ($5/month). You will need to actively opt out to avoid these fees. As a busy business owner, I did not see that email. But they refused to refund me the money, claiming that in the contract I signed I agreed that I may be enrolled in "Additional Services". This is how they will treat you if you work with them. Please, avoid the company at all costs.

Almost Perfect Mostly happy I went with Leaders Merchant Services. For me and my business, saving money/hanging on to profits is the most important factor when comparing credit card processing companies. When I was shopping around, Leaders was offering the lowest rates by a long shot. There were a couple of hiccups with my order and setup, so if it wasn't for that I would have given them the highest rating overall.

Leaders Merchant Services - best in rates, equipment and response time Very pleased about finding Leaders. We did a lot of research to find a better merchant services provider (the last one we worked with was too slow responding to me/my customers). Also, their rates are very competitive and the equipment they provided has been very reliable. All good.
